<p>I use unread messages as a todo list - is there a way to mark a message I looked at accidentally as unread?</p>

<p>I do not think that is exposed in the UI.  I believe the developers encourage people to use stars for the purpose of marking things you want to get back to later.</p>

<p>There's an option in Display Settings to show a count next to "Starred messages" which is strangely off by default.  Seems like a nice way to act as a reminder.</p>

<p>mark messages as unread part? (not sure why it's grouped with muting the topic)</p>

<p>"Mark messages as unread" is the topic name here.  That's just saying "mute the topic …" where … is the topic name.</p>
